Q: QuestionNew to gaming/streaming on PC. Will this be able to keep up with a whole streaming setup? Run the game (ie Apex), the stream (Twitch), streaming and editing software, etc, smoothly all at once?

Asked 2 years ago by LieslODiesel.

• A:Answer Honestly, you'd have no problem running Apex and Twitch at the same time. But editing software can be very resource intensive, so I don't think it will be able to do it all _smoothly_.

Q: QuestionIf i wanted to upgrade to the ryzen 7 5800x, could i just put the cpu in the motherboard and just turn it on without needing to buy other parts or configure anything in the bios? also, would i be able to use the same cooler it comes with for the new cpu?

Asked 2 years ago by vik.

• A:Answer Thank you for the question. The Omen GT21-0314 has the HanaA motherboard, and compatible processor upgrades are AMD Ryzen 5 5600G (Cezanne), AMD Ryzen 7 5700G (Cezanne), and AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (Vermeer). When changing the CPU, you'll need to update the BIOS. You can use the same cooler, provided it offers adequate cooling capacity for the new CPU, but you'll need to replace the thermal paste.

Q: QuestionWill any monitor keyboard and mouse be able to connect to this pc? I’ve never bought a pc before but I already have a mouse and keyboard I use on my laptop but also still need to buy a monitor. So can I buy any decent monitor for this pc?

Asked 2 years ago by Applesauce.

• A:Answer If they are an external mouse and keyboard that are compatible with Windows 11 with either USB A or USB C ends, they will work. For the monitor, it needs to either have a HDMI or DisplayPort input to work with it. Would recommend looking at monitors in the store as you can get a better idea of what resolution and display type you prefer. You can also use a TV that has HDMI input.

Q: QuestionIs it within the parameters to swap the 3060 ti gpu out with a AMD Radeon RX 7500 XT? Or would I have to upgrade the PSU beforehand?

Asked 1 year ago by Michael.

• A:Answer Michael, thank you for your question about swapping out the graphics card. The Omen series desktops come equipped with PSU that handle higher-end cards. The PSU in this model will be able to handle the 7500XT as it has a lower power draw than the 3060Ti.
